Tiny bit of progress on the diamond quilt

Here's a few photos of what I've done so far...

I've cut 80-something 6 7/8" squares in whites and brights.




I've drawn a diagonal line from corner to corner on the wrong side of the whites.





I've paired up the bright squares with a white square, right sides together.








I've sewn 1/4" seams on either side of the drawn line.









Like this.

I've cut them apart on the drawn line. Ta Da!

Here they are opened up.

I've turned one square around to match the bright fabrics up together in a diamond shape.

I have yet to repeat this 80-something times, but I'm working on it.

Also in the works...

A hexagon quilt called Grandmother's Flower Garden

A Bird quilt

All of the designs can be found here. Quilts and More

I love the hexagons because they are so portable! I can take them anywhere, and I do! I started the bird quilt because I need to work on my applique. The magazine I got the pattern from suggested doubling the freezer paper, and it's amazing how much that helped. Also, temporary spray adhesive by Sulky is my new best friend.
I'm off to sew for a few minutes,
See ya!
